    I call'd the devil, and he came,
    And with wonder his form did I closely scan;
    He is not ugly, and is not lame,
    But really a handsome and charming man.
    A man in the prime of life is the devil,
    Obliging, a man of the world, and civil;
    A diplomatist too, well skill'd in debate,
    He talks quite glibly of church and state.
